Sophie, 31 and Jamie, 37, have documented the pregnancy on their podcast NearlyParents, which was formerly known as NearlyWeds and then NewlyWeds.

The podcast touched on all things pregnancy, from the foods Sophie was craving, to her wildest dreams and how all the hair once lasered off comes back when you're pregnant.

Sophie also revealed she won't be letting anyone kiss her newborn baby, as the very thought of people kissing her little one gives her sleepless nights. 

She said: "No one's f*****g kissing my baby. And I'm gonna say this on this podcast: If anyone comes and kisses my newborn baby, I will punch you in the face."

Sophie added: "Please do not come near my baby and risk giving my baby germs."

Last week they shared the last episode of the podcast for the foreseeable while the pair entered parenthood.

In a post shared online they said: "The podcast is on ice as Jamie and Sophie get ready for their most exciting chapter - parenthood! We’ll see you soon."

The pair began dating in 2019, while they were both starring on Made in Chelsea.

They got engaged in December 2021 and tied the knot in a chic London ceremony in April 2023, before having their big wedding party in Seville a month later.
